Dr. Bustillo’s Philosophy on Facial Plastic Surgery

A decision about aesthetic facial surgery is a very personal one. My approach to each patient is individualized. I believe that a physical feature is only a problem when the patient perceives it to be a problem.

Because aesthetic facial surgery is an elective procedure, the approach must be serious, studied, and measured. My initial consultation focuses on three areas: first, the patient’s desires, expectations, hopes and dreams. Second, my evaluation of the patient’s physical appearance. Third, my ability to achieve the desired outcome. An interactive and collaborative effort works best to promote a shared understanding of the desired results. It is essential for us to share the same visual image. My commitment is to deliver the best possible surgical result and to have a happy, satisfied patient.
